Stopped horn high F# sounds as F natural

• May 26, 2025 - 13:10

Hi! Quick bug report to note that when notating a stopped high F# on horn, it sounds as an F natural. Each of the two octaves below play the correct note. I've attached a sample showing the difference between an unstopped and stopped F#.

edit: I should mention the version. This is in: OS: Windows 11 Version 2009 or later, Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore Studio version (64-bit): 4.5.2-251141402, revision: ac9d3bc

I don't know what you exactly wanted to do. It's due to the "+" (Articulations palette) which produces an effect: Muted (closed).
Remove it, except if it's your goal?
EDIT: this pitch difference only occurs with Muse Brass. It's probably an issue (at least it's unexpected).

I was just looking to use the stopped high F# and noticed the pitch different than expected. I've been using MuseScore a lot to write music for one of my software projects, and have use the stopped/muted articulation in various places for changing the texture of the horn. I'm pretty sure this is a bug - I'd expect to be able to play any note in the horn's normal range stopped.
